Debian DSA-5531-1 : roundcube - security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 183687

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

The remote Debian 11 / 12 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the dsa-5531 advisory.

 - Roundcube before 1.4.15, 1.5.x before 1.5.5, and 1.6.x before 1.6.4 allows stored XSS via an HTML e-mail message with a crafted SVG document because of program/lib/Roundcube/rcube_washtml.php behavior. This could allow a remote attacker to load arbitrary JavaScript code. (CVE-2023-5631)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the roundcube packages.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in version 1.6.4+dfsg-1~deb12u1.
